iShares Small Cap Fund (IWM) has added 30 cents to $77.65 and one strategist initiates a Dec 75 – 77 – 78 – 80 iron condor for a net credit of 68 cents, 13000X. They sold the Dec 77-78 strangle for the body and bought the Dec 75-80 strangle for the wings. This spread pays off if shares hold at current levels, between $77 and $78, through the expiration at the end of this week. Risk is a $1.62 plus commissions. Similar to our EEM iron fly, but wings are two strikes below the body.
